What is a YMS?

Here’s an article that tells you about them.

This week we will be working on Chapter 4.  I will have a brief presentation and we will have some discussion.  We may get to start chapter 5 if chapter 4 goes well.
Don’t forget your simulation data this Friday.

The simulation output files are not readable just as you see them. But I read them sucessfully with Notepad, perhaps the easiest and cheapest way to read them. You can read them with Word by making sure you are set to landscape and making the margins as large as possible. When you print them from notepad you may not get the page to break where you want it to, between the operations report and the financial report.  I think you can add a page break with the editor (Notepad) and get it to print OK.

Please give me feedback on the reports as the game goes on.  they are hard to change, but if all is going well I can have a stab at it later in the semester.
